Imanol Ansa (Urnieta, 24 years old) enters the fray in the Individual Championship-Kutxabank Ski Lift Tournament this afternoon at 4:00 p.m. in Galarreta, where Aritz Juanenea awaits him at the start of the quarter-final league. The Goikoetxea V group is completed, which will debut on Saturday and a place is at stake.
“Juanenea comes from playing and winning three games, and those who come from the bottom always do so with morale,” says Ansa II, who last year beat this same rival 30-26 in a “tight” duel.
Imanol Ansa knows the virtues of Juanenea. One stands out: «The speed with which the ball moves, the rhythm it has. If he has a good day and loses little ball, it is very dangerous.
Urnieta’s remontista has a plan to counter it. «I will try to move him to prevent him from playing on foot. For this I need to place my balls, look for the rebound … ».
Ansa felt “good game” after confinement and started training for the Singles “three or four weeks ago. More than serving batches, I try it out in the little games. I think I know how to do it, but it’s hard for me to be consistent. Last year I had a game that I almost won by serving. In others, however, I was not the same. I have to be more regular.
